I am assuming they checked the teeth out and they were ok? If so then I would only offer the dry food, no wet ,for the next week and see what happens. She probably likes the wet food a lot more and would prefer this but it sounds like you don't want to continue the wet food so I wouldn't give her a choice. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

i usually wet the dry food down with water. not a lot, just enough to make the food wet with a little on the bottom. My dog is young (8 months) but he loves it ... be careful with portion sizes though because he wolfs it down (i'm sure that won't happen with your dog since its been having problems, but you never know) and i would try to mix old food with new food.
let us know how it goes...
i'm sorry he's not eating though

is your dog overweight?

we were overfeeding our golden-at times he would just look at the food and walk away. when we cut back on his food-at the suggestion of the vet-his eating habits changed. he now wolfs it down like the average golden, and is now slim and svelte.

Obesity is a huge problem with our pets. Probably 9 out of every 10 dogs I see are overwt. and the owners just laugh when I bring this up-it isn't funny. I tell them I will be seeing their dog in a few years for euthanasia b/c they can't walk anymore-it is blunt but drives home the point of do something now before it is too late.

Dogs are not that differnet than people, except they cannot talk with vowels and consanents!

Do we understand their lingo? Hell No!

If you talk to a doggie Dr., you will find that the same drugs given to human peole are given to dogs and is cheaper!

Check it out if you can and want to!

People Dr's are nothing but people Vets!

If it is good enough for Us, then it must be good enough for them!
